- How long will we process your data?
We pay great attention to limiting the scope of data we collect as well as the time of its processing to the minimum necessary. For this purpose, we carry out systematic reviews of our paper and electronic documents, removing unnecessary ones that have expired. Remember that the processing time of your data, depending on the basis on which we obtained it, may be determined by separate legal provisions – independent of us, which may impose an obligation on us to store your data, regardless of your will or desire. Examples include labor law, social security law and accounting regulations.
If you personally used our services and we concluded a contract in this matter, we process personal data for the duration of the contract, and after its expiry or termination until the limitation period for any claims expires or until the rights and obligations arising from legal provisions, including tax and accounting regulations, are exercised.

If we process your personal data, you always have the right to:

If you believe that in any way – which we obviously do not want – we have violated your rights or failed to ensure the security of your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority, which is currently the President of the Personal Data Protection Office.

This data is processed solely in connection with maintaining the profile, including to inform users of these social media about our activity and promoting various types of events, services and products, as well as to communicate with these users via the functionalities available on social media. The legal basis for the processing of personal data by us as the administrator for this purpose is its legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR), consisting in promoting its own brand and building and maintaining a community related to the brand.
